Upright lift toilet seat

ABSTRACT

Upright lift toilet seat comprises one toilet seat with an upward-turned rear end, two pull strings and two weights. Upright lift toilet seat is kept at upright position by weight through the mechanism of seesaw and can be turned to horizontal position by hand. Male has to lift ordinary toilet seat to urinate to prevent toilet seat from being wetted by urine. If toilet has installed upright lift toilet seat then male does not have to raise toilet seat every time before urinating.

THE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Male urinates several times a day and defecates only once a day. Male has to lift toilet seat every time before urinating to prevent toilet seat from being wetted by urine. Upright lift toilet seat keeps toilet seat at upright position to prevent toilet seat from being wetted by urine when male urinates. Upright lift toilet seat can be turned to horizontal position by hand.

THE SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Upright lift toilet seat can be installed on a new toilet. Upright lift toilet seat can replace ordinary toilet seat to keep toilet seat at upright position all the time. Upright lift toilet seat also can be converted into ordinary toilet seat by removing attached weights when no male lives in household.
